The Love Instrument

Although the title sounds cheesy the subject is quite serious.
I have come up with my own test of how to figure out whether u still love a person or not
1. You think about this person?
2. Do you feel happy when that person is around?
3. Do you try to devise ingenious ways to be with that person?
4. While usually you are filthy like a pig, you dress up when you are going to see this person?
5. The presence of an entity of the opposite sex even within a one mile radius of this person is enough to turn into a blood thirsty murderer?
6. Do you feel happy when this person is around and your roommates are not around?

Answer these questions choosing any of the following 4 options
All the times
Sometimes
Rarely
Never

Now how u score it like this
All the times – 5
Sometimes – 3
Rarely – 1

Never – 0

Add up your scores and if they are above 15..you know what to do lage raho munnabhai/ munnibehen
Well this instrument needs to be validated on a few more subjects and after that it can be added to the annals of great research in OB
This is my tribute to OB...Hope they start using it in B-Schools soon.
I am also thinking of putting the results in some kind of a 2*2 Matrix framework ...so that it becomes a fultoo OB class type material.

Play Time after a Long Time

After cribbing to everyone about how bored I am in this city and how I would have preferred to go to Delhi or Mumbai or JhumriTalliaya, finally did something interesting on the weekend.
Went to see a play after a long time. It was called Butter and Mashed Banana on freedom of speech, what was more interesting than the concept was the way the actors handled the subject and enacted it on stage .There were no props apart from a plastic tub and a white bed sheet.
Brilliant acting and some interesting music...and yes a full house.
Well! I am looking forward to many more such weekends till I am in Bangalore and yes may I take this opportunity to thank a very dear friend ....Thanks buddy for making my life interesting :)
Anybody who is able to understand why they have named the play so, please let me know, your gyan sharing will be suitably rewarded.

Something is wrong with me

I am bored of shopping; eating out ...probably should go and see a psychiatrist.
Well at least my Bank account and my Dad are happy for the time being.

An ideal world

A world where there are no production and finance classes
A world where there are no deadlines to meet,no quizzes to crack,
A world where there is enough time to sit back and think,
A world where there are no hidden motives,no unfulfilled desires,
A world where the present is neither haunted by the memories of the past nor burdened with the worries about the future,
Yes that would be an ideal world.

Please Bear With Me :)

वो कहते हैं की ये रिश्ता अब ख़तम हो गया
मुझे भूल जाव
मुझे परेशान करने की कोई ज़रूरत नही है,
उन्हें कैसे समझाएं की किसी को भी मुझे परेशान करना हमारी आदत नहीं है,
लेकिन रिश्तों को यूँ ख़तम करना भी हमारी आदत नहीं हैं,
और किसी को यूँ भुला देना हमारी फितरत नहीं है,
शायद हम दोनों ही मजबूर हैं अपनी अपनी आदतों से ,
और आदतों को बदलने में वक्त तो लगता है,
कोशिश जारी है कामयाबी भी देर सबेर मिल ही जायेगी ,
तब तक "Please Bear with me "

आकर्षण

रास्ता सुंदर है

नई संभावनाओं से भरा हुआ है

कुछ नई आशाएं रास्ते में बिखरी हुई हैं

हो सकता है कुछ नए रिश्ते भी बाहें फैलाये खड़े हों

लेकिन मंजिल के आकर्षण में हम

अपनी आँखें खोलकर चलते हुए भी कई बातों को अनदेखा कर देते हैं

और जो बातें एक सुखद भविष्य की सच्चाई बन सकती थीं

सिर्फ़ अतीत बनकर रह जाती हैं

Missing home

There are days when you wake up and wish to see a tender smile,
There are days when you want a warm hug,
There are days when you want to hold a hand,
There are days when you want to lean on a shoulder and say nothing,
There are days when you wish to be at home.
